综述大模型如何提升可视化分析的交互与理解能力

This paper provides a comprehensive review of the integration of Large Language Models (LLMs) with visual analytics, addressing their foundational concepts, capabilities, and wide-ranging applications. It begins by outlining the theoretical underpinnings of visual analytics and the transformative potential of LLMs, specifically focusing on their roles in natural language understanding, natural language generation, dialogue systems, and text-to-media transformations. The review further investigates how the synergy between LLMs and visual analytics enhances data interpretation, visualization techniques, and interactive exploration capabilities. Key tools and platforms including LIDA, Chat2VIS, Julius AI, and Zoho Analytics, along with specialized multimodal models such as ChartLlama and CharXIV, are critically evaluated. The paper discusses their functionalities, strengths, and limitations in supporting data exploration, visualization enhancement, automated reporting, and insight extraction. The taxonomy of LLM tasks, ranging from natural language understanding (NLU), natural language generation (NLG), to dialogue systems and text-to-media transformations, is systematically explored. This review provides a SWOT analysis of integrating Large Language Models (LLMs) with visual analytics, highlighting strengths like accessibility and flexibility, weaknesses such as computational demands and biases, opportunities in multimodal integration and user collaboration, and threats including privacy concerns and skill degradation. It emphasizes addressing ethical considerations and methodological improvements for effective integration.
